Eoneophron
Eoneophron was a small, feathery dinosaur that lived at the very end of the Cretaceous period. It was an oviraptorosaur, a group of bird-like theropods with beaks instead of teeth. This dinosaur was about the size of a turkey and probably ate plants and small animals.1

Eoneophron was named in 2024, making it one of the newest dinosaur discoveries.1
Its fossils were first bought for $5,000 at a commercial sale and then donated to a museum for research.2
Scientists used bone histology, looking at the microscopic structure, to find out that this dinosaur was an adult, not a baby of a bigger relative.1
Eoneophron lived alongside the much larger caenagnathid Anzu wyliei in the same time and place.1
Like other oviraptorosaurs, Eoneophron had a beak without teeth and was covered in feathers.1
The Hell Creek Formation where Eoneophron was found is famous for fossils of Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus rex.1

- Навукоўцы яшчэ спрачаюцца
- Scientists are still debating how many different caenagnathid species lived in the Hell Creek Formation, since their fossils are rare and often broken.1
